Great performances and value! Best collection

Hands down. A great jumping on point for people new to the setting. John Banks' best performance is here in Heart of Decay. Absolutely magnificent.

Only got this for the xenos stories, hate chaos.

Chaos can suck it, evil bastards. The stories weren't bad though, insight into the demented corrupt minds

This be a Propar good book thing, ‘innit?

I absolutely loved everything about this audio book! The voice acting, the sound effects, and the Killer Music! (Especially the Orky bits of this book! WAAAGH!?!?!) I’m definitely gonna try to find more books like this one! Really sucked me in and got me so invested.

Great Warhammer Collection

Check this out because of three reasons.
1. Quality stories that are eloquent, gory, and easy to follow.
2. Variety of stories using many of the factions of the Warhammer universe.
3. Great value for your $ or credits, over 10 stories, each ~1 hour.

Uneven, but overall great.

Some of the stories are positievly brilliant (the Harlequin and Emperor’s children), some less so (The Tau story with its time jumps - I had to listen to it twice to appreciate it), one is a mistake (Prophets of the Waaagh - what is this supposed to be? A comic strip read aloud? The performance is ace, but the story is completely lost).

Da Orks!

Some of these stories I had heard before. I don't like buying things twice. The ork stories were fun.
